A body modifier convicted of manslaughter after a silicon snowflake he implanted into a young woman's hand became infected has lodged an all grounds appeal against his convictions and maximum 10-year jail term.
Brendan Leigh Russell, a 42-year-old Central Coast body modifier, was last year jailed for at least seven years and six months after Judge Helen Syme said he had shown no remorse, acceptance or responsibility for causing the woman's death and disfiguring two others, including a woman who had her genitals mutilated in Newcastle in 2015.
